Travel and Review : London Part 3 Southwark – Tower of London

london paris 021

To enter its a steep 21.50 pounds but its worth it!!! (Again if you have purchased Londonpass the entrance price is inclusive)

 

Remember you first have to cross the Tower Bridge to get there if you are across the river from the Tower.

Words cannot describe how fantastic this place really is!!!! Trust me, you will spend a minimum of 5 hours if you wish to explore every nooks and crannies available at your disposal.

Some of the areas, unfortunately, will prohibit the usage of cameras so you have to be there to experience it yourself since there are no photos to show.

But those areas that I can take a shot will probably be shown below:

If the above sites do not make your feet sore from walking, you can always take a break by watching LIVE plays.

However the fun part of such live plays is the fact that YOU have to participate. Trust me its fun and educational at the same time.

And after a long day of joining the different available plays, its time to source for your souvenirs. One of the place is below the museum of King Henry VIII (photography not allowed there) and the other is at the Medieval Palace Shop.
